Things Kids Say!

So my son and I went to the grocery store for a few things the other night and some how we ended up in the so dangerous Bakery section. Thank goodness I have some will power!! My son, well he has his fathers appetite and the metabolism to go along with it. Z's weakness is glazed donuts!!..Loves them.. As he was looking around I decided that I had to leave the Bakery before all will power was lost. I was in the Frozen Food section and I hear my son call me. Low and behold he found the day old bakery items and was completely aww struck....Glazed Donuts heaven...

So of course I am inspecting the packaging and the over all look of the food. (I have a great paranoia about opened packages and food that just doesn't "look right") He puts a package of donuts in the cart and I notice that they have bagels. Well I grab the package and the next thing that comes screaming out of his mouth (I mean screaming) is "YOU CAN'T HAVE THOSE!! YOUR GONNA GET HIGH!!" As he throws the package of Poppy Seed Bagels back on the rack. So now I am embarrassed, it's 5:30 in the afternoon, busy time of day at the grocery store. I can feel the eyes staring at us...and I ask "Where did you learn that and no, I won't get high!"
He says "MythBusters, you know that show on the Discovery Channel." Enough said. So I tried to explain that you would not get high. He didn't want to hear it. So even though I had no intentions of getting them, he made it very clear in a Z kind of fashion that he did not like them!!

Sometimes Missing Kids Are Found!

What a great ending to such a traumatic experience for the family but most of all a girl who has been missing for a year! I was looking through the new stories at msnbc.com and they had story from my state about a 15 year old girl found who had been missing for a year. They found her locked in a hidden room under some stairs. This not only was in my state, hell, she was found in the town I happen to live in!!

Well thank god she was found, gives us as a nation hope that some missing kids are still alive. Those children who have not returned hopefully will be found and my thoughts are with them and their families.

Gas Petition

So with the rising gas prices our Governor Jodi Rell has finally decided enough is enough. I happen to agree with her. She is calling for the the Democratic leadership in the state legislature to join Republicans in suspending the state’s 25-cent gasoline tax from Memorial Day through Labor Day. In addition she has posted a petition for the residents of Connecticut to join in on. If you are a resident of Connecticut please click the link and add your name to the thousands of others who would like to feel some relief at the pump.
